Visual Art Department at Brown University
A Visual Art education at Brown is a rich experience of conceptual challenge, skill-building, and self-discovery. Our students acquire the intellectual and practical tools to make art, as well as to interpret and critique the world of images. We offer a range of courses: drawing, painting, photography, printmaking and sculpture, as well as new genres, digital media, and video. Our students also have opportunities to take courses at the neighboring Rhode Island School of Design.

Homecoming
May 25 - June 22, 2012
Opening May 25 5-7 pm
An exhibition of work by Visual Arts and Art-Semiotics alumni. Curated by Heather Darcy Bhandari '97 and Ann Tarantino '97.
Timed to coincide with Commencement, it focuses on the theme of the body and the various ways it is represented, specifically through manifestations of the physical form as well as labor-intensive, physical processes of making. All of the artists featured engage in a process of embodiment with their work, whether it be by physically participating in the work itself or through a meditation on what it means to inhabit a physical body. The exhibition includes work by artists Jonathan Ehrenberg '97,Orly Genger '01, Kevin Kramp '02, Maria Walker '02, and Saya Woolfalk '01.

Cai Guo-Qiang was born in 1957 in Quanzhou City, Fujian Province, China. Trained in stage design at the Shanghai Theater Academy, his work has since crossed multiple mediums within art, including drawing, installation, video and performance art. Among many accolades, Cai was awarded the Japan Cultural Design Prize in 1995, the Golden Lion at the 48th Venice Biennale in 1999 and AICA’s first place for Best Project in a Public Space for Cai Guo-Qiang: Fallen Blossoms (2010). He currently lives and works in New York.
